Good simple kit

I've been using API test kits for years. They're simple to use and accurate. Marine Depot got the reef test kit to me within a couple of days and as usual the product arrived here n great condition and as described.

good

good price and not give it the highest rating because the reading of the colors is somewhat confusing at times, but it is a good product

Missing chemicals

I received two bottles of Nitrate #2 and no Calcium #2, so I have been unable to test calcium levels. I used the on-line contact form to report the problem and received a very prompt reply saying that the Calcium #2 would be mailed to me. Unfortunately it never appeared. I replied after a week asking for status and was told to call the 800 number. Unfortunately they aren't staffed on weekends so I haven't been able to do that. I'm still unable to test for calcium.

Quality Reliable kit

I have been reefkeeping for close to 16 years and have found this test to be very reliable over the years. Although I have not cross referenced it with other kits like salifert, I still have found that the test kit is more than adequate to keep a healthy looking tank. Very straigtforward and easy to use
